Schools are opened again. I would like to remind everyone that neighborhood speeding is always a concern. We have cars, vans, SUV’s, delivery trucks, and construction vehicles that all exceed the speed limit of 25 MPH. Please be mindful that the kids are out walking, riding bikes, or playing in their yards. The kids will forget to look for you so please remember to look for them. Please watch your speed when driving through the community.

SEPTEMBER HOA MEETING

Next meeting is September 9, 2014 at 7 pm to 8:30 pm in the Miller Library. Come out to hear what is next for our community!! We expect to see you there. Block captains are expected to be there.

FRONT ENTRANCE CLEANUP

You may have notice that the front entrance is receiving a facelift. TVO I BOD has contracted Brickman to do some minor cosmetic work to our front entrance. The major complaint in the neighborhood is the appearance of the front entrance. We are taking action to fix some of these issues. Some of the completed work include:

1. Cutting the holly trees back and lifting them off the monuments.

2. Remove three viburnums trees to make all of the monuments visible.

3. Heavily pruned all overgrown trees on the right side (entering TVO) so that the monuments can be more visible.

4. Replaced the light bulbs. Replaced the light sensors with a timer.

In the coming days, Brickman will remove all of the liriope and prep the area for the fall seasonal plantings. Going forward, the monuments will be on the same planting schedule as the median. We will also have the monuments power washed in the near future.

COMMUNITY CLEAN UP DAY

TVO I would like to thank the men that showed up for the cleanup day for the community recreational area. Thank you Lyman Goon, Kevin Powell, FJ Collins, Ken Hertel, Mike Keenan, Tony Tavares, Mike Groman, Dennis Frey. You are all superstars. I truly hope I did not omit someone!

TVO I COMMUNITY DAY

Although Mother Nature forced us to wait until Sunday. I think we had a great turnout and a great picnic. The unofficial count was 130. Some believe there were more in attendance. Kids played frantically throughout the day. Neighbors talked enthusiastically. I met several of the original owners that still reside in the neighborhood. Thanks to the TVO BOD for making this happen. Thanks to all that volunteered. Thanks to all that came out. Unequivocally, It was a great day for the community!
